Default Quick comments about Klasse twins...

Just tried out the Klasse twins for the first time today. I've heard great things about these products so I thought I'd give it a go. The procedure I used was:

1. Wash
2. Clay
3. Klasse AIO (PC @ 5)
4. Klasse SG (by hand)

I must say that both products go on very easily, esp. the sealant glaze. the AIO removed a lot of oxidation which I thought was really impressive. Overall, an excellent product. The SG has a very watery texture that goes on/off really easily, very effortless. One thing I noticed, however, was that the slickness of the finished product was not nearly as good as that of the Wolfgang products. It was soft and smooth to the touch, but not slippery like the WG. My personal preference would be WG over the SG. I think next time I'll try the AIO with a WG topper.

(sorry, it was late in the day, so no pics )

Comments/thoughts/suggestions welcome.

Sam how many coats of SG did you use??

I did G-s2k's volvo last weekend and i don't think that car ever saw wax. one coat AIO + one coat SG

did a quick detail yesterday and the car was very smooth / slick

sam- good review...

bet you would get the slippery finish by topping with p21s!
(you can do that next time you detail if you want to- just wash and p21s; would take another 10 minutes or so to do the entire car).

I just had to chime in here as I'm a Klasse fanatic..

IMO it is the best stuff for my finish..

I recently tested it against the much widely talked about WolfGang twins, and my Klasse produces a much "wetter" finish for me. I simply love the stuff.. the Wolfang produce a "salad oil" finish not to my liking..

Bass,

I only put one coat of SG on due to time limitations. I'm planning on putting a second coat on next time. The car that I worked on probably never saw wax, either....and no, you can't buy my leftovers

s2ksimon,

I agree with you about the WG finsih, but for some reason, I kind of like that "salad oil" finish (that's a great descirption, btw). I'm going to keep trying out SG with multiple coats/sandwiching. Don't get me wrong, I think the Klasse twins are excellent products (esp. the AIO) and I would definitely recommend the products to anyone. I just prefer the WG finish (for now)
